How did the person at AMC do the blowing leaf animation, I wonder?

@BaileySEA That dates back to late 1994, so I guessing it could have been advanced CGI. Graphic designers Nancy Palladino & Laura Talkow were hired by executive producer Felicia Behr in 1994 to create this, so you'd have to ask them. I tried contacting them and succeeded last year, but they found it odd to be contacted about work they had done 15 years earlier. Most of these shots were originally live video of episode clips, but that was changed last minute & the backgrounds became live instead.

If I'm not mistaken, this theme played when Susan Lucci won the emmy.
